It's all in, finally. Except for the dual 320GB seagates.

The 8800gtx is a fantastically HUGE card, and the case is just short of being comfortably usable with it, I wish I had the Antec Nine Hundred or the P180 for this build.

Dude, either wait for the auto focus to kick-in, or lay off the meth and calm down when taking a picture. images/smilies/lol.gif

I think the problem here is the "shaky hands not enough light syndrome" images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Possible solutions: a) use the flash 2) turn on some more lights 3) open the curtains (works only during the day of course) 4) support the camera against something images/smilies/wink.gif

My sis got this as a gift from a business associate and gave it to me, since she has a MacBook.

That's worth quite a bit of money, if I'm not mistaken. I thought about switching to Vista before but didn't because of the hassle involved in installing it, getting it activated, possible compatability issues et cetera. Plus, I have zero Problems with XP. But now that I got a genuine copy of Vista Ultimate for free...let's just say it got me thinking again. images/smilies/smile.gif
